Bangkok:People have set up camp at Tha Tien pier, eagerly awaiting the royal procession. Tha Tien pier has become a focal point for public attention as it serves as the location where His Majesty disembarked from the Royal Barge Suphannahong following the docking of the royal barge procession at Wat Arun Ratchawararam.
